Ajay Devgn's complaint against Yash Raj Films rejected

Ajay Devgn Films Pvt Ltd had reportedly filed a complaint to the Competition Commission of India (CCI), alleging that YRF was using its dominant position to ask exhibitors to dedicate more screens to its film, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, adversely affecting Devgn's home production Son of Sardaar, which releases on the same day.

According to The Times of India, in an order issued on November 5, the CCI rejected Devgn's complaint, stating: "The Commission is prima facie of the opinion that there is no contravention of the provisions of the [Competition] Act in the present case.

"It was argued by the counsels for the informant that the opposite parties were dominant because Opposite Party was big banner production house and had big names and had given several blockbuster films.

"No enterprise can be considered dominant on the basis of big names. Dominance has to be determined as per law on the basis of market share, economic strength and other relevant factors stated under... the Competition Act."

Yash Raj Films had reportedly made agreements with single screen theatres to screen Jab Tak Hain Jaan during the release of Ek Tha Tiger.
